Pilea pubescens ‘Silver Tree’ behaves as a small groundcover shrub in its natural habitat. As a houseplant, it can be maintained as a small tree with seasonal maintenance pruning or allowed to grow vine-like. The ‘Silver Tree’ variety has unique, dense, textured foliage. We love its dark, silver-streaked leaves. To promote its vibrant color, the pilea appreciates a bright room. However, avoid direct sunlight, which can damage its leaves.
